Adding electrolyte to a fake (dry) capacitor.
After discovering that the capacitors in a "vehicle performance enhancer" were fake (real caps, just dry with no electrolyte) it was suggested that I could add some electrolyte to see what happened.
I'm not sure what the official recipe is, but some early electrolytes were based on ethylene glycol and boric acid. I made some up and then dunked the capacitor in it...
Here's a link to Andreas Spiess's component tester video.
